Property taxes are considered to be “good” taxes for local governments as they support the provision of local services and education. However, many countries and jurisdictions experience difficulties in administering property taxation. The objective of this one-day workshop is to bring together local and international experts to facilitate experience and knowledge sharing amongst the delegates, with a focus on Canadian and international experiences.

Topics will range from tax policy options, assessment valuation challenges, and options for modernization and efficiency improvements. The workshop will allow for exchange and interaction amongst the experts and workshop participants.
